Amalfi

Your private boat adventure begins in Amalfi, once a powerful Maritime Republic and now a sparkling jewel of the Amalfi Coast. After boarding, we’ll start with a short safety briefing to ensure a smooth and enjoyable journey for everyone.Then, it’s time to set sail. As we leave the harbor, soak in panoramic views of whitewashed homes, ancient domes, and lemon-scented cliffs rising from the sea — a living postcard that sets the tone for the day ahead.Cruising along the coast, you’ll pass the secluded Santa Croce Beach, a hidden cove accessible only by boat, its turquoise waters inviting and untouched.Soon after, we’ll reach the enchanting Natural Arch, also known as the Lovers’ Arch. According to legend, two young lovers once sought refuge beneath it, and nature carved the stone to shelter their eternal bond. Sailing beneath the arch is said to bring good fortune in love — a magical and symbolic start to your Amalfi Coast experience.

As we continue along the coast, the scenery becomes more breathtaking — steep terraces draped in bougainvillea, secret coves tucked into the cliffs, and the unmistakable charm of the Amalfi Coast unfolding before your eyes.We soon arrive at Conca dei Marini, a postcard-perfect village nestled on a rocky ledge above the sea. From the boat, you’ll spot the elegant white dome of San Pancrazio Church, standing tall between emerald hills and sapphire waters.This stretch of coastline is rich with echoes of the past — you’ll cruise past ancient Saracen watchtowers, once used to guard against pirates, and modest fishermen’s homes carved into the cliffs.Here, in the calm bay of Marina di Conca, we drop anchor for our first swim stop. Dive into crystal-clear waters, float under the sun, and take in the beauty of this peaceful coastal haven — the perfect beginning to your day at sea.

Praiano

As we continue our journey, the tranquil charm of Praiano comes into view — where authenticity and beauty go hand in hand.

With its crystal-clear turquoise waters and views stretching out toward Capri, it’s a true local secret — and the perfect spot for our second swim and snorkeling stop. Dive in, explore the underwater world, or simply float and soak in the sun.Look up, and you’ll also spot the Torre a Mare, an ancient watchtower turned art space, keeping quiet watch over the coastline — a reminder of Praiano’s rich history and creative soul.

Just beyond, the graceful curve of Atrani's beach hugs the shoreline.Tucked into the rock, this hidden gem feels like a step back in time.
